Using AutoCAD Files

A key feature of 3ds Max Design is its ability to let you work with drawings and models you've

created with AutoCAD and AutoCAD Architecture (formerly Architectural Desktop), or drawings

you've exported from Autodesk Revit. 3ds Max Design gives you the advantage of being able

to improve on sound, precise drawings by letting you create realistic design visualization

presentations.

The integration of drawings created with AutoCAD and AutoCAD Architecture or exported

from Revit with 3ds Max Design scenes is extremely tight. DWG files convert cleanly and

maintain their layer identities and you have control over import smoothing, normal

unification, and several other geometry specifications. You can import entire drawings, merge

specific layers or components, and even create a live link between 3ds Max Design and

AutoCAD.

Time to Complete: 45 minutes

Features Covered in This Tutorial

■ Preparing an AutoCAD drawing for import

■ Creating AEC objects using a 2D CAD drawing as a template

■ Using the File Link Manager to create a live link between AutoCAD and 3ds Max Design

■ Diagnosing problems you might encounter with the File Link Manager

Files for This Tutorial

You can find the files for this tutorial in the \tutorials\using_AutoCAD_files folder on the

program disc that ships with 3ds Max Design. Before starting the tutorials, copy the \tutorials

folder from the disc to local installed program folder.

Preparing AutoCAD Drawings for Import

To successfully and efficiently use AutoCAD objects in a 3ds Max Design scene,

it's important that the files be properly prepared. Specifically, you'll need to

pay attention to layer management in the AutoCAD drawing.

In this lesson, you'll clean up a 2D AutoCAD drawing by deleting unnecessary

objects and freezing unwanted layers to prevent them from being imported

into 3ds Max Design. You'll also prepare a 3D AutoCAD file for import, taking

advantage of the benefits of both 3ds Max Design and AutoCAD.

Understanding ByLayer Drawing Import

The 3ds Max Design Layer Manager is similar to the Layer Properties Manager

in AutoCAD. Both enable you to hide and freeze layers, and to control the

visibility and color of objects on those layers. You can also determine whether

a layer’s objects are plotted in AutoCAD or rendered in 3ds Max Design,

regardless of the visibility of the objects in viewports.
